This time, he wasn't alone.
He still didn't agree with Keely's personality, but after working with her for a day, he had to admit that Keely was smart and capable. Keely also helped him a lot during critical moments, which saved him a lot of energy. Luna even saved his life.
More importantly, Keely had a solid foundation that Angor did not have yet, especially when it came to basic knowledge. Angor would never be able to catch up with Keely.
Therefore, Angor still chose to go with Keely.
The direction the Meraid's Sword was pointing at was exactly where they had left the trench. As they rose higher, the pressure decreased, and the Purification Force Field slowly returned to its normal state.
Keely sent a voice transmission to Angor, "Your body is too weak. You can rely on the Purification Field at the bottom of the sea. But what about other environments? The field won't help you much in a vacuum, extreme cold, or extreme heat. You need to find a way to solve your body's problem as soon as possible. A bloodline fusion is the best choice. Wizards need bloodlines to speak for themselves. "
"I know. But it's hard to find a suitable bloodline." Angor knew that his body was his weakness. Every time he ejected his soul, he would feel so powerful that he didn't want to return to his body. Apart from him, all the elite apprentices who came to the garden had already fused bloodlines.
"I'm glad you understand." Keely didn't say anything else.
As soon as they left the trench, they ran into a fight.
Their opponents weren't apprentices. Instead, they were a group of Floating Jellyfish that glowed with blue light.
This group of jellyfish had a very strong mental toxin, which was extremely toxic. However, they also had a fatal flaw — their intelligence was too low. Even if they were strong, they still couldn't withstand a single blow from wizards who were famous for their intelligence.
The easiest way to deal with these jellyfish with low intelligence was to cast a fog illusion to surround them.
After that, they didn't bother to kill the jellyfish anymore. In any case, these jellyfish would still be sacrificed in the end. Killing them now would be a complete waste of magic.
After that, they ran into several more fights, all of which were against underwater creatures with energy signatures.
Angor was puzzled. He didn't see any supernatural creatures when he went to the bottom of the sea. Why did he feel like there were so many of them now? It was as if he had returned to the world dominated by the flying fish.
That was until Keely told him that those underwater creatures were actually the flying fishes. They had also traveled through the World Membrane to the Sea of Purification.
Hearing this, Angor realized something and became even more cautious about his future.
Right now, the Sea of Purification was like the sky of the Flying Fish World. Large numbers of Demon Beasts and Demon Fish filled the air, adding more variables to the already difficult journey. Besides, he could use Infinite Reticence to hide in the flying fish world. But he would be easily exposed at the bottom of the sea. It was unrealistic to rely on Infinite Reticence to hide from these supernatural creatures.
The only good thing was that the Sea of Purification was large enough to disperse the supernatural creatures, which prevented him from attracting tens of thousands of flying fishes. But at the same time, since there were a lot of native marine creatures in the Sea of Purification, the Transcendent creatures from the flying fish world would be able to hide among the ordinary creatures, greatly increasing their stealth ability.
Angor and Keely had to avoid all kinds of fish so that they wouldn't accidentally wander into a group of supernatural creatures.
Twice, they encountered powerful magic beasts that were as powerful as Octopo. One was a humpback whale that was almost as large as a cloud whale, and the other was a green-furred sea turtle that was smaller in size but more powerful than an island whale.
Angor had no choice but to use Eavesdrop and Keely to escape from the pursuit of these two wizard-level monsters.
They ran for nearly tens of miles in circles, and finally got rid of the humpback whale and the green-haired turtle.
Angor and Keely were happy to get rid of the monsters. But when they saw the direction the Meraid's Sword was pointing at, they all went silent.
They moved several kilometers away, but the Meraid's Sword didn't change its direction at all. It was still pointing southeast. This meant that their destination was very far away from them. So far that the Meraid's Sword didn't change its direction at all.
Such a long journey also meant that there were bound to be many dangers ahead.
…
Tens of thousands of kilometers away from Angor, inside an underwater castle belonging to a Dugon race.
The corpse oil of a ten-thousand-year-old demon shark was burning in a candlestick. The bright light and the faint fragrance of the flame filled the room.
Jebra was leaning against a coral bed while closing his eyes to recover his mana.
The cloaked woman pushed open the door to the side room. Through the opened door, one could clearly see that the inside of the room was filled with blood. A female Gui with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish was lying in a pool of blood. Her eyes were dazed, and there were four cruel bloody holes in her towering chest.
"Did you find anything, Feche?" Jebra asked.
Feche took off her bloodstained cloak and put on a pure white dress in front of Jebra. She then sat down in front of Jebra and tossed a small golden sword to him.
"Meraid's Sword, golden." Feche yawned. "I'll take the other one."
"Of course. It's what you deserve." Jebra accepted the sword and pointed at the scale between his eyebrows. Following his finger, the small blue whale flew out of his forehead.
"You finally let me out, Master!" The little blue whale wagged its tail and rubbed its face against Jebra's face.
Jebra pushed it away with a smile and gestured for it to open its mouth.
The whale opened its mouth and revealed a strange space about ten meters wide in front of Jebra. The space was filled with all kinds of resources. However, there was something special at the corner of the space. This place was filled with scales of different colors. According to the shape of the scales, they were all Duons' heart scales. Among them, there were dozens of gray scales, six white scales, and three silver scales.
Not long ago, Jebra's team destroyed a Duon tribe that had nearly a thousand Duons. Unfortunately, only two or three percent of the Duons survived. Not even a single high-level Duon was found.
Jebra didn't know how the golden scales worked compared to the other scales, but he was the kind of person who only wanted the best. After torturing several Silver Duons, Jebra's team came to this underwater castle and killed the third princess of the Duon tribe to obtain the golden heart scales.
"I've asked around. Golden scales represent power in the Duons. Apart from that, there's nothing special about them. However, the Third Princess of the Mastiff Tribe mentioned an interesting rumor about her ancestor. "A mocking smile flashed across Fish's face as she spoke.
"Interesting rumor? Let's hear it. "
"According to the legends, anyone who holds a golden Meraid's Sword will have a better chance of serving the gods." Feche curled her lips.
"Serving the gods? Heh. That's just a trick put up by Floating Mech City. " Jebra shook his head. "So the golden Meraid's Sword doesn't work for us outsiders. But it's fine. I don't want to enter the Altar of Demise with a gray Meraid's Sword. "
Feche covered her mouth and chuckled. Jebra's personality was perfectly suited to get the golden Meraid's Sword.
"Well, let's go then." With that, Jebra stood up and left.
Feche followed him through the hallway and headed outside. There were still many patrolling Duons in the castle, but none of the guards noticed them, nor did they know that the third princess, the owner of the castle, was dead.
"Those Duons look disgusting. Should we just kill them?" Feche sent a voice transmission.
"No need. They're going to die anyway. First, they sacrificed a half-formed world. Now, they're going to sacrifice an entire civilization. The City of Floating Mech really put a lot of effort into upgrading the garden. "
Jebra and Feche left the underwater castle and headed toward the direction the Meraid's Sword was pointing at.
However, they didn't get far before the little blue whale suddenly spoke, "Master, I sensed something approaching us from a hundred kilometers away."
"Robbers?" Feche narrowed her eyes.
"Don't worry. Keep going. If they come, we'll just kill them. "With that, Jebra kept moving without hesitation.
About ten minutes later, a group of people appeared in front of Jebra.
"Shit! It's Jebra!" A childish female voice spoke. "We can't beat them! Run!"
Jebra looked up and stared at the group of people with a disdainful look. Suddenly, he noticed one of them and frowned. "It's you?!"
The half-asleep woman frowned and grumbled, "So noisy! So noisy! "
She opened her eyes and saw Jebra standing in front of her.
The endless ocean, the endless waves, and the loud noises that came from Jebra's body reached her ears.
The woman was still a bit sleepy at first, but when she saw Jebra and heard the noise coming from his body, her gentle expression suddenly changed into a creepy smile. "We meet again!"
Jebra heard the creepy voice and saw the woman laughing madly. "I've been wanting to do this for a long time. How about I turn an entire ocean into poison? Or should I boil it into boiling water? Too bad the Sea of Purification is too big for me to do that. But I think the ocean inside you should be able to do it. "
As she spoke, the woman suddenly dashed toward Jebra.
"Shiliew?!" The person who was about to run away turned around and saw that his teammate had already rushed up to fight. His eyes immediately widened.
"She's attacking again." The lazy voice paused a little. "Why do I need to say 'again'?"
"Why do I feel like she's on steroids every time she sees Jebra? This is bad!" The childish female voice sounded like she was about to cry.
"I think so too, but they should be the ones telling us. Shan, take a closer look."
Shan followed her teammate's instructions and looked up. She didn't see Shiliew getting killed instantly. Instead, she saw Jebra being pushed back by the woman with half of his body red and half green.
"Huh? Jebra lost. "
